1990 Map of Caprock Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
Constellation Mine and the nearby Cliff Roy Mine reveal a landscape of active extraction on the slopes of Caprock Mountain. This 1990 survey captures the rugged mining and ranching character of Hidalgo County, where prospectors once sought fortune among the volcanic terrain. To the south, the vast expanse of Lordsburg Mesa is marked by modern infrastructure, including a prominent Trans Line and Pipeline that cut across the arid plains. The drainage patterns are dominated by White Rock Canyon and the South Fork Willow Draw, showing the intricate erosion of the high desert. Local landmarks such as Lane Mountain and Red Hill serve as distinct navigational points in an area defined by its mineral wealth and its position along the boundary of Grant and Hidalgo counties.
